CommScope also produces a Remote System Module for HEUs and Spectrum DART Remote Units (DRUs). You cannot interchange the use of the Remote System II Module with the Host System III Module. Only a Host System III Module will work within the Host Unit, while HEUs and DRUs require the use of the Remote System II Module.


Host Unit Overview

Host System III Module Ports and Connectors


1 EXT REF IN 1 - 4 connectors

SMB-Type female RF coaxial connectors 10 MHz reference clock input that may be used to synchronize between multiple Host Units in a daisy-chain configuration. For CDIUs, System III Module is responsible for selecting a valid 10MHz CPRI reference clock to serve as the master DAS reference. The System III Module detects all REF IN signals present in the EXT REF IN connectors (1-4) and assigns the 10MHz CPRI reference clock. If a reference input goes away (the CPRI link goes down causing CDIU to mute REF OUT), then the System III Module automatically selects the next available EXT REF IN connector.

2 REF OUT connector QMA-Type female RF coaxial connector; green ring indicates that this is a QMA connector

10 MHz reference clock output that may be used to synchronize between multiple Host Units in a daisy-chain configuration.

3 Alarm Outputs—Remote Twelve position terminal block. Screw-type terminal connector (14–26 AWG)

Connection points for a major and minor dry alarm contacts. Includes Normally Closed (NC), Common (COM), and Normally Open (NO) wiring connections.The Host contacts are for the Host Unit and the Remote contacts are for any of the Remote Units in the system. If you need to monitor all alarms from the system, then both the Host and Remote contacts must be used. If the BTS does not have enough inputs, daisy-chain the Host and Remote contacts so there is only one major and one minor alarm to monitor.Maximum voltage and current is 250V @ 2A.

5 Alarm Inputs Two contact closure inputs Connection points for monitoring external devices.Dry contact only. Maximum is 3.3VDC @ 6ma.

1 RX Off No SFP is present.

Red Receiver has no light.

Amber Receiver detects light, but is not locked or is not framed to incoming signal.

Green Receiver is locked and framed to the incoming signal.

TX Off There is no SFP inserted in this TX connector.

Red An SFP is installed in this TX connector, but the internal FPGA PLL has not locked (this is highly unlikely).

Green An SFP is installed in this TX connector, and the internal FPGA PLL is locked.

2, 3 PATH A and PATH B

Off CDIU Path A/B is not linked. On startup, Path A/B is defaulted by the FPGA to be Off.

Amber* The DAS user has configured CDIU Path A/B, but the BBU has not provisioned the Path A/B Antenna Carriers.

Green The DAS user has configured CDIU Path A/B, and the BBU has provisioned the Path A/B Antenna Carriers. For CDIU Connection Types 3, 4, and 5, the CDIU PATH A and PATH B LEDs will not turn green until Antenna Carriers are present for both CPRI ports.

4 CONFIG Off FPGA files are not present; error may have occurred during a software upgrade.

Red* FPGA has loaded, but the processor has not booted, which indicates a file corruption or hardware problem.

Amber* CDIU is still booting or not booting correctly; CDIU is therefore not communicating with the BBU.

Green FPGA is configured, and the master processor is running according to specification.

5 PWR Off CDIU is not receiving power from the backplane, or there has been a power-on failure.

Red One or more of the internal power rails is out of tolerance.

Green All power rails are present and in-tolerance.

* If the CONFIG LED remains red or amber, there may be file corruption or a missing file; check for an active CDIU configuration fault alarm and follow the alarm remedy. If alarm remedy does not turn the CONFIG LED green, contact CommScope for assistance (see "DCCS Global Technical Support” on page 71).

Configuration Type Description Mapping Diagram

Type 1CPRI Ports: 1 and/or 2Carrier Configuration: SISO, SISORF Paths: 1 or 2RF Bands: 1 or 2

Type 1 is for Dual Independent SISO—both CPRI Port 1 and CPRI Port 2 map to a single RF path. The two RF paths can be in different RF bands. Note that with the Type 1 mapping, you will configure CPRI Port 1 and CPRI Port 2 independently from each other.

Type 2CPRI Port: 1Carrier Configuration: MIMORF Paths: 2RF Bands: 1

Type 2 is for Single MIMO—one CPRI port maps to two RF paths—that must be in the same band—for MIMO deployment.NOTE: Only Port 1 is allowed in Type 2.

Port 2 is disabled.

Type 3 CPRI Ports: 1 and 2Carrier Configuration: SISO, SISORF Paths: 1RF Bands: 1

Type 3 is for Summed SISO—sums carriers from two CPRI links into a single RF path.Applications include placing LTE and WCDMA carriers (from separate BBUs) in a single RF band, and two WSPs summing into the same RF Band.NOTE: The passband selected for Types

3, 4, or 5 must be sufficient to accommodate the antenna carriers from both CPRI ports. For example, when using Type 5, if AWS Block A is on Port 1 and AWS Block B/C is on Port 2, then the passband on Paths A and Path B must both be tuned to AWS A/B/C. This applies for any of the summed connections (Types 3, 4, and 5).

Host Unit Overview

Type 4 CPRI Ports: 1 and 2Carrier Configuration: MIMO, SISORF Paths: 2RF Bands: 1

Type 4 is for MIMO + Summed SISO—this configuration combines Single MIMO with Summed SISO:• CPRI Port 1 maps to both Path A and

Path B—that must be in the same band—for MIMO deployment.

• CPRI Port 2 maps to Path A only NOTE: This application supports

placement of SISO WCDMA carriers in the same RF band as CPRI Port 1.

NOTE: The passband selected for Types 3, 4, or 5 must be sufficient to accommodate the antenna carriers from both CPRI ports. For example, when using Type 5, if AWS Block A is on Port 1 and AWS Block B/C is on Port 2, then the passband on Paths A and Path B must both be tuned to AWS A/B/C. This applies for any of the summed connections (Types 3, 4, and 5).

Type 5 CPRI Ports: 1 and 2Carrier Configuration: MIMO, MIMORF Paths: 2RF Bands: 1

Type 5 is for Dual-Summed MIMO—it combines MIMO channels from both CPRI Port 1 and CPRI Port 2 and maps them to common (dual) RF paths. For example, you can combine LTE5 and LTE10 MIMO channels in the same RF band, as would occur when multiple WSPs are in the same RF band (i.e., Neutral Host).NOTE: The passband selected for Types

3, 4, or 5 must be sufficient to accommodate the antenna carriers from both CPRI ports. For example, when using Type 5, if AWS Block A is on Port 1 and AWS Block B/C is on Port 2, then the passband on Paths A and Path B must both be tuned to AWS A/B/C. This applies for any of the summed connections (Types 3, 4, and 5).

Safely Working with FlexWave Hardware

SAFELY WORKING WITH FLEXWAVE HARDWARE

ThefollowingsectionsprovideimportantinformationthatyoushouldreadandknowbeforeworkingwithanyFlexWavehardware.Observeallcautionsandwarningslistedinthissection.SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR THE NEBS LEVEL 3 HOST UNIT

This is restricted access equipment and only qualified service personnel should service and operate this equipment using appropriate tools.

This equipment is not suitable for installation as part of a Common Bonding Network (CBN) or an Isolated Bonding Network (IBN).

The intra-building port(s) of the equipment or subassembly is suitable for connection to intra-building or unexposed wiring or cabling only. The intra-building port(s) of the equipment or subassembly MUST NOT be metallically connected to interfaces that connect to the OSP or its wiring. These interfaces are designed for use as intra-building interfaces only (Type 2 or Type 4 ports as described in GR-1089) and require isolation from the exposed OSP cabling. The addition of Primary Protectors is not sufficient protection in order to connect these interfaces metallically to OSP wiring.

The maximum ambient operating temperature for the Host Unit is 50º C (122º F).

Wet conditions increase the potential for receiving an electrical shock when installing or using electrically powered equipment. To prevent electrical shock, never install or use electrical equipment in a wet location or during a lightning storm.

When loading the Host Unit in an equipment rack, make sure the mechanical loading of the rack is even to avoid a hazardous condition such as an unbalanced rack.

The equipment rack in which the Host Unit is installed should safely support the combined weight of all the equipment it holds.

This equipment uses a Class 1 Laser according to FDA/CDRH rules. Laser radiation can seriously damage the retina of the eye. Do not look into the ends of any optical fiber. Do not look directly into the optical transceiver of any digital unit or exposure to laser radiation may result. Use an optical power meter to verify active fibers. To avoid the potential of dangerous amounts of radiation exposure, immediately place a protective cap or hood over any radiating transceiver or optical fiber connector. This practice also prevents dirt particles from entering the adapter or connector.

You must clean the SFP optical ports at the Host Unit and at the Remote Unit, and clean the tip of the fiber-patch cords. Failure to clean the ports and cord tips may result in an optical RX or TX alarm state.

Improper handling can damage fiber optic cables. Always allow sufficient fiber length to permit routing of patch cords and pigtails without severe bends. Do not bend fiber optic cable more sharply than the minimum recommended bend radius specified by the cable manufacturer. Do not apply more pulling force to the cable than specified.

Electro-Static Discharge (ESD) can damage electronic components. To prevent ESD damage, always wear an ESD wrist strap when working on the Host Unit and when handling any of its components. Connect the ground wire on the ESD wrist strap to an earth ground source before touching the Host Unit or any of its components. Wear the wrist strap the entire time that you work with the Host Unit and its components.

Do not remove the blank faceplate from a slot in which an RF DART Module or CDIU will not be installed. To maintain correct airflow through the Host Unit chassis, unused DART/CDIU slots must be covered with a blank faceplate with divider bars in place. The Host Unit ships with four blank faceplates. If additional blank faceplates are required, you can order them from CommScope (see "DCCS Global Technical Support” on page 71).

To minimize cable loss, mount the Host Unit as close as possible to the BTS.

Running System Test in the Prism EMS (System Configuration > Perform System Test) with unterminated Host Unit DARTs may cause a false RLM Upconvert Fault. Ensure that all Host Unit DARTs are terminated before running System Test.

CommScope recommends the use CommScope's active or passive integration panels/modules for signal conditioning.

Validate the loaded forward path connection at the BTS. Verify that the maximum composite forward path RF signal level at the Host Unit is between -25 and +6 dBm before connecting the forward path to the Host DART RF Input. Take into consideration the current level of signal loading when conditioning the RF level going into the Host Unit DART and when adjusting the FlexWave system gain setting. The RF input signal should be conditioned so that the maximum composite forward path RF signal level will never exceed +6 dBm. CommScope recommends a -15 dBm input into the forward path of the DART, which will be required for future FlexWave software releases.

When connecting the equipment to the supply circuit, check equipment nameplate ratings to avoid overloading circuits, which may cause damage to over-current protection devices and supply wiring.

The Host Unit uses a current summing for redundant power, so polarity is important. Red always goes to positive and black always goes to negative.

The Host Unit uses current summing for redundant power, and thus even when redundant power is not being used the second twisted pair will have voltage present on the wires. The redundant pair will require either connection to the same terminals with the primary pair or proper securing with local practices to avoid shorts.
